The term "PC" should be renamed

[El Kabong]

It should just be 'c' as in "comply" because that's what it means to me

A flag is a flag and any flag can offend another person. Rather than banning them I merely argue that we tolerate them for better or worse. You also seem to be against most good comedy which makes for a rather bland world.

PC is merely a contemporary form of control. It limits and restricts possibilities and puts us in a straight jacket of niceness.

If the only way you can be a good comic is by offending others maybe you should look for new material.

I'll continue to disagree on the flag bit. Rather than taking the "any flag can offend another person" approach, I'll continue to say let's ask what the purpose of the flag is. National flags and state flags have obvious uses. Flags of past and buried organizations whose sole purpose of existence was to kill and/or torture other human beings have no practical use whatsoever. If you openly display and fly them, you're purposely attempting to taunt/ bait/ offend/ provoke other human beings. A government with balls would say "NO... you can't do that. End of story."

What regime is solely about murdering and killing? Surely there must be something more to a regime. Japan kept the same flag. Should we ban that? The US drones and invades every half decade. Where's the flag ban? Your standards do not add up.

Am what comedy does not offend? How does that work? Frank Skinner was full of shock in a routine I watched a while ago. Very funny too. Should we just ban it? Do you want people to watch bland PC comedy and only that?

If you're comparing the Nazi flag to the country flags of both Japan and the U.S....... maybe we really shouldn't be having this conversation.

That is the problem with the PC crowd. They just want to shut down the discussion. What distinguished imperial Japan from Nazi Germany? I see a lot of obvious similarities. Can you honestly not see them? They were war time allies occupying nations and carrying out genocide. Yet one flag is evil and the other is just dandy.

Last time I checked, Japan was still a country and as such has its own flag. Germany ALSO has its own country flag, and it looks nothing like the Nazi flag. Keep reaching, though.
